I am super excited to share a sneak peek of this month's Card Club kit with you today! These cards are some of my favorites that I've designed for this club in quite awhile, and I think they will be a great start to a new year full of beautiful card kits.
Most of the cards in this month's kit are birthday cards, so you can build your stash and be ready to send them throughout the year. Plus, what's not to love about the gorgeous Wildflower Birthday Designer Series Paper?!
This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is a sketch challenge. I love using these for inspiration!
I've paired the Hearts of Elegance Bundle and the Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper for my card today. I followed the sketch pretty closely, but moved my heart(s) to the opposite side.
I am in love with this bundle! It's perfect for Valentine's Day, but also for anytime that you want to send a little bit of love to someone. And those heart dies are amazing!
Here is a full list of products I used on this card:
Hello, and welcome to this month's Creation Station Design Team blog hop. It has been a hot minute since I've been able to participate in this hop, but I'm excited to be back!
This month, our theme is Celebrate Saleabration. Saleabration starts on Tuesday, and there are LOTS of amazing choices this year! I've used four different Saleabration products on my card - see if you can spot them all.
Did you find all of the Saleabration goodies?!
I've started with the Day to Celebrate stamp set. This stamp set is perfect for any type of celebration - birthdays, congratulations, and more! I thought it was fitting for our theme.
The next Saleabration product I chose to use was the Starstruck Embossing Folder. I used it to emboss a piece of the brand new Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper. Yes, you can emboss glimmer paper! The photo doesn't ever do that glimmer justice, but believe me, it's sparkly and beautiful in real life. And look carefully at that embossing folder! At first, it just looks like flowers, but there are actually little stars in the centers. SO cute!
I've embellished my card with two more Saleabration products - the Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins and the Fresh Freesia 3/8" Seam Binding Ribbon. You might be asking where the Fresh Freesia Ribbon is hiding... this ribbon takes color really well, and I've colored it with my Dark Blueberry Bushel Stampin' Blends Marker. I almost like it better in blue! What do you think?
The beautiful cupcake and gold striped paper are from the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper pack - it is part of a lovely new suite of products in the January-April Mini Catalog.
Here is a full list of products used on my card today:
Stamps: Day to Celebrate
Ink: Blueberry Bushel, Pool Party
Stampin' Blends Markers: Dark Blueberry Bushel
Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Blueberry Bushel, Gold Foil, Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper, Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper
Happy New Year! For my first blog post of 2025, I'm sharing a card that I made to play along with this week's TGIF Challenges theme challenge.
I used the Humble Home Bundle along with a few upcoming products. You are going to love the Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper and the Everyday Arches Dies!
Do you send thank you cards after Christmas? I used to be really good about doing that, but have fallen out of the habit since having kids. I'm working on writing them again this year, and so I made this card specifically for some friends at church who gave us a few sweet treats for Christmas.
Here is a full list of products I used on this card:
Stamps: Humble Home
Ink: Misty Moonlight, Versamark
Paper: Misty Moonlight, Boho Blue, Basic White, Real Red, Pecan Pie, Timeless Plaid 6" x 6" DSP
Friday
afternoon is a great time for a sneak peek, don't you think?! This
month's Christmas Card Club features the Snowy Wonder Bundle. I used
this bundle for my Monthly Card Club last month, and I loved it so much
that I wanted to use it again!
My
Christmas Card Club runs year round, and so while this month's kit will
not get to you before Christmas, this is a great time to join and start
on your cards for next year! Future you will be so grateful to have all
of your cards finished and ready to go in 2025. ;)
This
club is $44/month, and each month you'll get supplies to make 8
Christmas cards - 2 each of 4 designs. Your class kit will also include
products you'll use on your cards - usually a half package of Designer
Series Paper, a full roll of ribbon, and a full embellishment. You'll
also get all of the card bases and cardstock pieces you need to complete
your cards, envelopes, and a PDF tutorial. You can add on the stamp
set/bundle and any inks I used that month to your kit, or substitute
products you already own. Shipping is included in the subscription fee.
There is no commitment to belong to the club for a certain amount of
time - you can join or cancel whenever you'd like. However, for every
six consecutive months that you subscribe, I'll send you a fun little
gift package valued at $20+!
If you'd like this month's kit, you can sign up here.
I don't know about you, but I give a good number of gift cards at Christmas, and the gift is a little bit more special if it comes in something pretty. Enter this card class!
In this class through the mail, you'll get supplies to make 5 different gift card holders. You can add on a second set (to make 2 of each) for just $7!
This class includes a full pack of the A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series, a Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, a half pack of the Festive Glimmer Paper, and a package of Iridescent Adhesive-Backed Discs. You will also get all of the cardstock you'll need to complete the gift card holders, plus envelopes, a PDF tutorial, and a video tutorial.
You can choose to add on the Festive Words stamp set, or substitute a stamp set you already own. The ink colors I used are Garden Green, Real Red, and Memento Black. (The Memento Black ink pad is currently out of stock, but any black ink pad will work.) Recommended adhesives are Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, and Tear and Tape.
This class is $46, plus $10 shipping. If you'd like to add on a second set of gift card holders (to make 2 of each instead of 1), you can do that for just $7.
The deadline to sign up for this class is Tuesday, December 10, and class kits will ship out by December 13.However, if you sign up and pay by Monday, December 2, I will ship an early round of class kits on December 6.
